Gunfight at OK Corral

So I conquered by fear of the 4-wheeler and got out and rounded up some calves that had gotten out--I don't know who was more scared..me or the calves. Looking out I knew it was Dennis and friends (he has 2 friends now--he is popular!)...our neighbors have some volunteer winter wheat, and they just think its theirs. So out I head on the 4-wheeler, pink boots flying, and yell at the calves. I get them running and have them cornered, so I open the gate and swing around to get them in. Well I didn't want to face them head on, so I looped around the horse barn and came down the narrow-way between the two corrals...Its just me and the calves now. Its the gunfight at the OK corral. As in--OK who's going to get in? LOL. 2 of them make it in...I'll give you one guess which calf did not go in.

As I'm rounding them up, the other cows stare at me from the corral:

They're looking at me like I'm entertainment instead of actually working....here's my version of what they're saying:

"Now Myrtle look at her go, she's on that machine."

"I know, this ought to be good. Do you think she'll get Clarice's boy in?"

About Me

So in May 2010 I moved from KC to a rural Kansas farm. Farm life isn't too foreign to me, but its been a trip. I lived on a farm for awhile growing up, but besides the farm, KC is the longest I've ever been in one place. And they could not be more different. Moving to the farm this time has been interesting and fun! I'm a loyal Sex and the City fan, but now I live on the farm. One of my friends said I was Barnyard Barbie, complete with swather, cow, and rainbow boots! This is my fun story! Join in my adventures :-)
